Quicken Update fails
don_sass
Quicken update fails with error code 1638. Have spent about 4 hours on the phone with support and now all program files are gone. Last time they threw their hands up and said it has to be a win 11 issue. Reinstalled win 11 and still no luck. Have been running Quicken on this machine for almost 2 years without issue.

Hello
@don_sass
,
Thank you for reaching out to the Community and telling us about your issue, though I apologize that you are experiencing this and for not having received a response yet.
If you haven't already, I suggest that you perform a
clean
uninstall/reinstall (
this is
different from
simply uninstalling and reinstalling the program
) which will clear out and replace the existing configuration files for Quicken (
this does not affect any of your data and/or backup file
s).
To do so, please refer to this
support article
and scroll down to the section titled
If the steps above do not resolve the issue
. Then, open and follow the instructions found in the blue dropdown sections titled
First: Download and use QCleanUI
and
Second: Rename Quicken Shared Folders
.
I hope this helps!

Have already done this many times. Have reinstalled win 11 also.
